I loved the book when I was a kid. It was my favorite for a long time. I remember going to a play and enjoyed it a lot.
I took my daughter to the new one finally in the dollar theater a long while after it had come out.
I just love it.

Yep...35 years old and I can't watch it without my heart sinking, my bottom lip quivering, and my eyes welling up!
I love this animated feature! I think that Paul Lynde may be my favorite cartoon voice EVER as Templeton! What a classic!
